2025 Tournament PreviewMarquette was top 15 in the country most of the non-conference season with wins against Maryland, Purdue and Wisconsin -- all top-5 seeds in the NCAA Tournament. Things went downhill in February (despite a soft year for the Big East) as the Golden Eagles finished the regular season going 4-6. Senior guard Kam Jones (19.3 ppg, 5.9 apg, 4.5 rpg) is one of four players in double figures in a thin rotation -- the Golden Eagles rank 298th in bench minutes. Despite struggling from the perimeter (32.5%, 245th), Marquette is 32nd in offensive efficiency (per KenPom). In fact, 6-11 center Ben Gold is the best three-pointer shooter (37.0%), which isn't a great sign, though two others shoot at least 36 percent. Defensively, the Golden Eagles are also top 30 in efficiency, ranking top 20 in turnovers. Even with the strong start, Marquette has just six Quad 1 wins, and it's worth noting coach Shaka Smart has advanced past the Sweet Sixteen once in three tournament appearances.
